Sharing reports to external users
Hi PPK,
Couple of comments/questions.
1. Question - Why are you trying to add the user to the workspace? That should only be done for users collaborating who need to edit the dashboard or report. Why don't you just add them to the app in the workspace if you want them to see all of the dashboards and reports - as long as all the reports/dashboards they need to see are included in the app, they will have read only access to them.
2. When you say " I try to add this user to the work space, however I get an error that the e-mail address does not exist in my organisation", do you get a warning or an error? I have played around with this and found that if the user is not added as a user in Office 365 first, then you will get that error. Since it is basically adding a user to an Office 365 group, I tried to go into the Office 365 and add an email that is not associated to a user in that tenant, and could not add them their either, so it looks like O365 will only allow O365 users to be added to groups. I have other users from the same external tenant setup as guest users in my tenant for some other testing I am doing, and since they are setup as users in the tenant, they can be added to the workspace. As you can see below, I have added 2 users from the external jbergteste3 tenant, but I can't add jberg from the jbergteste3 tenant as he is not a user in the "home" tenant jbergtest4, but the other two users are setup as guest users in jbergtest4.
